vided as 'is customary above the press box. The type of condenser that I have shown is one in which the air is withdrawn axially through thel end ofthe casing remote from that seen in Fig. 1. I provide an air duct 14, preferably formed between the side walls of the slide 8 `and between the concave curved bottom wall of the slide and a lsimilarly curved bottom wall 16 of the duct.
10 It will be noted that the "slide bottom 15 V into the condenser casing 'fromwhichit 'de'- rives a current of air under lpressure responsive to the control 'of a pivoted va'lve 17. This valve when open seats in an offset at the upper end ofthe slide'bottom 15 so that its under surface stands Vsubstantially iiush i with the top wall of the air duct. The valve has operating crank 18, which is lcon- Y n'ected'by a bar 19 to'the top of thev tramper .lint slide soY that as the latter starts downwardly from its extreme raised position, as `shown in Fig. 1, it will vact quickly togrock the valve 17 into position to stopthe airflow through the ducty let.V d In like manner, as 'the 'follow-block 1G approaches its.. raised position, it will, by the means shown, open the valvef17 and thus cause a blast Vor' air to i'low through the duct 14.- with theresult which will" now be described.
During the working stroke of the followblock, the air being out off, the lint. shield Y13 will cause the cotton ybeing fed down the slide to bank up and collect Vat the lower end of the slideand. above the open end 'of the air duct. As soon as the follow-block in rising reaches a critical position, its shield l opensfthe press box V9 to receive cotton from the lintv slide and it opens the valveto admit a current of air to the'duct 14, whiehair rushes 'down through the duct and, following'the direction of the arrows, strikes Vthe accumulated mass of cotton at the base of the lint slide acting toV open it up and direct .it-ink a vortex or whirl into the press box -blastof air from said condenser andV direct stopsv short of the bottom 16 oftheair ductV it, against .cotton 'at the discharge end f of and that the air duct opens at its upper endl the art without departing from the invention as defined in the appended claims.
What I claim as new, is
11. The combination with a condenser, a press box, and a tramper mechanism comprising a screened guide and a reciprocable follow-block therein, or' a chute adapted to deliver cotton from the condenserV into said screened guide, a duct adapted to divert a saidv slide in a direction to blow saidbox `and vs'ereenedrguide full of cotton, and valve Y means vresponsive to the follow-block movements'forV starting and stopping the air blast.
2.*V'I`he combination with a condenser adapted to receive air under pressure, of a lint slide leading therefrom, an duct leading along under ysaid slide and open at Yitsupper end to the condenser and at its lower end to the lint slide, a Avalve control'- `Vling* the flow .of -air .through said duct, a
vpress box,1 a; screened' follow-*block guide above the press box into which the duct and slide arev adapted to discharge, and a'tramper follow-block adaptedto control said valve and to compress the masses of cotton intermittently blown into said press .box below it.
V3. The combination with a condenser adapted to receive air under pressure', ofa lint slide leading` therefrom, an 'air duct leading along under saidlslide and `open at its upper end to the: condenser'and at its lower end to thelint slide, a valve for con-` trolling the iow of, air through said .duct and positioned the `upper end thereot` adjacent the condenser, a press box at'the lower, end of the slide, a reciprocable tramper for lcompressing lint .in the press box, and means voperable upon" reciprocation of the tramper for. intermittently opening and closing the valve. 1 l i In testimony whereof I aliix my signature.
